Describe in greater detail how your proposal will make LA the best place to CONNECT?

An app that connects people to better understand and utilize city streets and infrastructure - as well as to each other!

LA might be home to millions of people - but it also has a well deserved reputation for isolation - it's hard to get to know people when you're enclosed in your own vehicle, listening to some jams and frustrated by traffic.

Lots of people would be into riding a bike - but for people born and raised on freeways, it can be like learning a new language to figure out what streets to take instead of a freeway. New residents and lifelong ones all benefit by being able to find the easy (vs the faster) routes. Get to work/school/errands or connect to transportation without wondering what way to take.

And, in cases where the infrastructure just plain sucks for cycling - encouraging signage and the ability to find someone to ride with makes a big different to how easy, fun and safe it can be to chose to bike. It's hard to get to (or out of) the west side. Knowing the best route and having a (new?) friend to go with is enough of a motivator to create real behavior changes in transportation.

More people on bikes = more interaction with neighbors, coworkers, people from all walks of life in this amazing diverse city.

Please explain how you will define and measure success for your project.
